[Vinylly]

See how you score. I found I learned almost all I know just from this website and my score was quite good.

[SkyDancer]

You scored better than 52% of the public, below 35% and the same as 13%.

But then, I'm just back from working in Australia.

[ClearCase_guy]

I got one wrong. Better than 96% of the population. For what it’s worth, I get virtually all of my news rigth here.

[yldstrk]

I missed 2

[KarlInOhio]

13/13, although I had to guess on the two where they just showed you a picture and asked “Who is this?”.

[Dallas59]

Better not...have had a hard time with things since I was a kid...

[Ouchthatonehurt]

Only 2 wrong.
One was about same sex marriage, so I feel pretty good about that.

[Mrs. Don-o]

I got 12 out of 13, "You scored better than 96% of the public, below 1% and the same as 3%."

And I was astounded by that. Quite a few of the questions I was quite unsure about --- but my best-guesses were on target.

(Don't know if that's bragging or aw-shucking.)

[Albion Wilde]

I missed 2

Same here.

[mountainlion]

How can they test you when you forgot most of what you know during the test.

[Ouchthatonehurt]

FReepers are going to raise the average scores!

[fatman6502002]

Aced it.

“You scored better than 99% of the public and the same as 1%.”

[gura]

91%. I thought the Supreme Court question was pretty vague.

[PAR35]

“You answered 12 of 13 questions correctly.”

[thecodont]

Got 85%. Questions 1, 5 and 6 missed.

[Gay State Conservative]

Twelve of thirteen...I missed the CEO of Yahoo.

[Prince of Space]

Got 100%! Surprised they didn’t ask if I was a liberal or a conservative though. Maybe they don’t wanna know, lol.

[conservative98]

Booyah. Perfect score!

You answered 13 of 13 questions correctly.

You scored better than 99% of the public and the same as 1%.

[combat_boots]

Me 2

[vladimir998]

I got 12 out of 13.
